Daily Life in the Countryside After Being Reborn

Chapter 751: Chapter 92: The Expected Exposure (Part 2)

Xu Lan Ya’s family is wealthy and powerful, and she has Ye Heng at her disposal. Her ginseng field was destroyed, and she was bluntly refused by Xiao Xian when she attempted to buy it. She must absolutely loathe Xiao Xian.

"What’s there to be afraid of? Fighting is not allowed on campus, and even if it comes to that, we might not necessarily lose to them," Xiao Xian huffed, stepping on a withered ginseng plant.

"This won’t do, Xiao Xian. Can you calculate approximately when this several acres of ginseng can be harvested? I have almost finished picking the ginseng flowers. I’m worried Xu Lan Ya might tamper with these ginsengs. How about we pitch a tent and stay here for a few days, just to watch over them until they mature?" Yiyi had almost finished picking the ginseng flowers, and Xiao Xian had mentioned that drinking ginseng flowers can invigorate the mind and is also very beneficial to the body.

Since the flowers themselves are so beneficial, the ginseng underneath must be even more precious. Otherwise, Xu Lan Ya wouldn’t have begged Xiao Xian to buy them in such a humble manner.

Xiao Xian’s analysis was not wrong. Xu Lan Ya, mindful of the campus rules, certainly wouldn’t engage in an outright fight. If it really came to a fight, they could still give it a try. But it’s different for these ginsengs; they’re too conspicuous a target, and since they can’t be harvested prematurely, the only option left is to have someone guard them.

"That’s exactly why a conspicuous target is good. ’Without risking the ginseng, Xu Lan Ya won’t bite,’" Xiao Xian shrugged, casually plucking a ginseng flower and smelling its fresh fragrance, "We should first send these ginseng flowers to the supply center and let Romeo One know in advance that we have grown some top-grade ginseng."

That night, a shadow appeared in the Spiritual Fruit Garden.

The figure moved quickly, and in a few steps, reached Xiao Xian’s acres of ginseng.

"Women are such trouble," Ye Heng remarked, looking at the two acres of ginseng just about to be harvested, which were close to maturity and had already begun to emit a refreshing fragrance.

"What a pity," Ye Heng’s hand produced a golden spiral-shaped Spiritual Energy Blade.

On a moonless windy night, the Spiritual Energy Blade whirled into the air, slicing through the ginseng field. Countless clumps of soil flared up, and the fully-grown ginsengs were dug up from their roots.

The night continued.

The next morning at seven, Romeo Eighteen, a Spiritual Fruit Garden’s robot making its routine patrol, passed by the ginseng field only to find it in complete disarray: "Romeo One, please urgently notify student Zhu Xiaoxian, there’s a problem with her Medicine Field."

When Romeo One notified Xiao Xian and others, Xiao Xian and Zhang Yiyi were leisurely sitting on the balcony, holding hot milk and eating ham sandwiches.

"Xiao Xian, something’s happened. Your ginseng field in the Spiritual Fruit Garden has been destroyed," Xuerou rushed to the balcony. After hearing this, Xiao Xian remained calm, picking another cucumber, crunching it loudly, its taste indescribably refreshing.

"Xuerou, don’t worry. After we finish eating, we’ll go together," Xuerou had thought that Yiyi, who usually acts with urgency, would have jumped up first. Yet, this time even Yiyi was as calm as Xiao Xian, sitting cross-legged without much reaction.

What’s going on? The roles have all turned upside down.

"How can you all be so calm? Romeo One said it would accompany us personally. There’s never been anything like this in the Spiritual Fruit Garden before. The campus authorities are now investigating those who entered the Spiritual Fruit Garden last night," Xiao Xian’s ginseng field was the most severely damaged among all the Medicine Fields.

The ginseng sprouts, which had just started out, were all uprooted, and the immature ginsengs were crushed and trampled to pieces.

The perpetrator must have been well aware of the North Campus Spiritual Fruit Garden’s rules, where any precious medicinal materials produced are implanted with special chips. Therefore, he didn’t steal anything, it was purely sabotage.

Moreover, infuriatingly, after destroying the ginseng, he set fire to the surrounding acres of Medicine Fields. This year, North Campus Spiritual Fruit Garden’s losses are bound to be severe. However, since it was man-made destruction and arson, the campus authorities ought to waive Xiao Xian’s supply quota.

"Is the investigation useful? Actually, no need to investigate, I and Xiao Xian already knew who destroyed the Medicine Field," Zhang Yiyi, showing a delighted expression, just wanted to burst out laughing. They had been waiting for this day for a long time, almost bursting internally from holding it in.

After entering Huake Institute, she had never felt as relieved as today.

Xiao Xian also couldn’t help but grin, not only were the fields destroyed, but the fire also took out the nearby Medicine Fields. The intent behind setting the fire was supposedly to destroy the Ziwei Ginseng while also waiving some people’s contributions for the year—a pretty clever plan, but unfortunately, there was Zhu, the proverbial cicada, and also her as a mantis lurking behind.

"You guys already know who did it?" Xuerou, sharp as ever, caught on quickly, "Was it Xu Lan Ya? But her Medicine Field was also damaged, and no one would believe it if she said so."

"Of course, she wanted her own ginseng field to seem damaged too. It’s unlikely her fields would have produced any ginseng this year," Yiyi scorned, having never seen someone so wicked—not only being malicious herself but also inciting others to misdeeds.

"But no one will believe what we say, the stuff that happened last night wasn’t even detected by the patrolling robots of the Spiritual Fruit Garden," Xuerou regretted, also blaming Xiao Xian and others for knowing the opponent might sabotage yet not taking precautions early.

"Hehe, Xuerou, don’t worry, you’re almost turning into an old lady. Rest assured, we’ve learned our lesson this time and have already prepared beforehand. Remember, a month ago, I had you help me find something, now it’s going to serve a big purpose." (To be continued.
